Re: [MW:23473] Piping WPS/PQR and Welder Qualification Compliance- ASME IX or ASME B31.3

as far as B31.3, it does have all variables for which it refers to Sec9

Subject: [MW:23463] Piping WPS/PQR and Welder Qualification Compliance- ASME IX or ASME B31.3

Dear Sirs
Appreciate if you could provide clear and definitive response.

In my Yard Piping WPS/PQRs and Welders Qualification comply with ASME IX only.

ASME IX specifically developed as Qualification Standard for Welding,Brazing, and Fusing Procedures;Welders; Brazers; and Welding,Brazing, and Fusing Operators
ASME B31.3- ASME Code for Process Piping.- (Design/Construction Code)

As For Welder/Operator/Brazer Qualification& Piping WPS/PQR Qualifications- what is mandatory code- ASME IX or Design/Construction Code ASME B31.3?

For example High Pressure Piping ASME B31.3 Chapter IX shall be complied for WPS/PQRs and Welder Qualifications.
Yes, PWHT requirements one need to comply with ASME B31.3-Table 331.1.1

Does that mean ASME IX requirements superseded by ASME B31.3 Chapter IX?
Where and when one shall comply with ASME B31.3 instead of ASME IX.?

Thanks

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change. Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
